Countryman Season 2 is receiving an uncertain reaction from actor Jacob Lofland, who plays Cooper Norris, despite the series’ early streaming success. Based on the Boomtown Podcast and debut in mid-November, Countrymanis a modern retelling of the search for happiness among the oil rigs of West Texas. With an experienced cast led by Oscar winner Billy Bob Thornton, the Christian Wallace and Taylor Sheridan-created drama is off to a strong start in terms of viewership.

However, in an interview with Screen rantGrant Hermanns, Lofland, expressed uncertainty about this Countryman Season 2. Lofland, who is also known for his role as Aris The labyrinth runner Franchise, he said hopes the show will be renewed, but doesn’t know if it will happen. Lofland also responds to what he hopes for Cooper, Thornton’s character’s son, in the following quote and says this He wants Cooper to experience some growth:

Jacob Löfland:
Completely unofficial, I can’t say yes or no and I have no idea. All I can say is that I hope more than anything that we get back to work on it as soon as possible because it’s fun and I love doing it and I think this story needs to be told , and I think people will love it. So this is, at the end of the day,

So if there is a second season, which I hope there is again, what would you like to see from Cooper that you didn’t get this season, but that doesn’t reveal anything about the rest? this season?

Jacob Löfland:
That’s a really good question, and honestly I don’t really have a good answer to it. I’m just sitting here saying, “I can’t wait to see what Taylor has to offer.” As an actor, I’ve never been able to say, “Oh, this is what I’d like to do.” It is always like, “We have to do this.” I was just so curious and waiting for Taylor. Hopefully we’ll get to season two and start reading and seeing what’s in store for Cooper. I mean, I’m not a writer, so even if I could imagine it, it probably wouldn’t be as good as Taylor planned.

You never know when you’ll become embedded in the character.

Jacob Löfland:
That’s correct. Some growth. I would hope that Cooper grows into the young man that he wants to be and that he somehow gets out of childhood, which Ariana and he, I’m sorry we’re getting back into that, that was a big dynamic between the both. You basically see him as a kid who doesn’t know what he’s doing, unlike when you see him in the patch where he still doesn’t know what he’s doing, but you don’t understand that vulnerable side of a person. It’s just the work, and that’s what we have to do. I like this dynamic and hope this part of Cooper grows. That would be fun.

What a second season extension for Landman could mean

It’s already a hit

Take a look Landman’s Based on ratings trends, it is difficult to imagine a scenario in which the oil drama would not flare up again. Paramount boasted about the drama’s viewership and revealed this just days after its November 17 premiere Countryman reached 5.2 million viewers across multiple platforms on the same day. That’s what the oil drama is all about the largest global launch of a Paramount+ original since 1923 two years earlier.

Prequel is also a series created by Taylor Sheridan and will return for season 2 on February 23rd.

When Nielsen releases its streaming charts in the coming weeks, there will surely be further confirmation of Landman’s streaming success. Countryman will likely appear in these charts as well. And while the adaptation may end up as a limited series, it is It would be unusual for Paramount to miss out on one of its biggest shows from a series creator who is known as a hit maker. That’s especially true since Thornton has said he hopes to continue leading Countryman Cast in the role of Tommy Norris.

There is every chance Lofland will witness Cooper’s development Countryman Season 2. Although nothing is confirmed yet, as the actor says, it is possible that Paramount will announce a second season when the first one comes to an end. Even when it comes to rivalries and tensions on oil rigs, it follows a familiar pattern.

Our opinion on Landman’s renewal

It looks like Yellowstone

The reviews for Countryman have highlighted the show’s similarities with Yellowstone. If you follow this template, it could be that Cooper starts out as a relatively shy character, but develops into something completely different as the story progresses. This is all speculative for now, but all early signs point to a renewal.
